4-(decyloxy)butan-1-ol

Description:

4-(Decyloxy)butan-1-ol is an organic compound characterized by its long hydrophobic decyl chain and a hydroxyl group, which contributes to its amphiphilic nature. This substance features a butanol backbone with a decyloxy substituent at the fourth carbon, enhancing its solubility in both organic solvents and water to some extent. The presence of the hydroxyl group allows for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its physical properties, such as boiling point and viscosity. Typically, compounds like 4-(decyloxy)butan-1-ol are used in various applications, including surfactants, emulsifiers, and in the formulation of personal care products due to their ability to stabilize mixtures of oil and water. Additionally, the length of the alkyl chain can affect the compound's surface activity and its behavior in different environments, making it relevant in fields like materials science and biochemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
